August 25-Start Your Day Right DevotionAFRAID OF ... CIRCUMCISION GROUPCircumcision involves cutting the foreskin from the penis. This physical act was originally used to confirm God's promise to make Abrahm's descendants a great nation (Genesis 17:1-14). Later, it became a sign that the Israelites were in a covenant relationship with God based on God's laws and promises to them and their faithfulness and obedience to Him (Leviticus 12:3; Romans 2:29). Those "who belonged to the circumcision group" were Jewish Christians, especially in the Jerusalem church, who believed that the Old Testament sign of circumcision was still necessary for all new covenant Christians (Galatians 2:4). They also taught that Jewish believers should not eat with any uncircumcised Gentile (non-Jewish) believers who did not follow certain Jewish customs and food restrictions. Peter knew that God accepted Gentile believers without bias or prejudice (Acts 10:34-35), yet he denied his own principles out of fear of criticism and the possibility of losing authority with some in the Jerusalem church. His separation from Gentile believers at mealtimes encouraged the false notion that there were two bodies of Christ (two different churches) - Jewish and Gentile. BIBLE STUDY TOOLS I USE
